BOOX Tablet Go Color 7 Gen II E Ink Tablet 4G 64G Support Active Stylus InkSense (Black)

1. Yes, the name states color e reader. But keep in mind this picks up certain a colors. It won’t be as vivid as your tablet or phone. The colors appear more mute see image! . 2. Screen was great no issues, no specks! 3. If you’re having issue with ghosting. The settings I used had the least amount of ghosting + good quality! * Remember to do this for EVERY APP! Steps : Open E-Ink Center Color mode : optimal Refresh mode : speed Refresh mode -> More A pop up box will appear with two tabs For HD : Turn ON -> System Refresh Drag to refresh -> set to 2S When scrolling use : HD Current app : set to 5 Animation Filter -> set to 20 For Speed : Anti Flicker -> set to 2 4. Has two speakers, sounds pretty nice! 5. Semi-User friendly… you might need to watch a few TikTok’s for some “how to” 6. It’s android based so you can download other apps! Like Libby, kindle, Spotify 7. It has BooxDrop, which is (your own) personalized QR + Link to upload stuff from your laptop or cellphone (images, files etc)

First, let me preface that I'm a power user. I only really had 2 options when upgrading my Kindle: 1) purchase the most current Kindle and figure out how to jailbreak it to run Alpine Linux (and hope it doesn't get bricked at some point down the line), 2) get an Android based e-reader. The latter being a more turnkey solution, I looked at the offerings from Boox. As luck would have it, the v2 of the Color Go happened to be launching the same week that I started seriously considering making a purchase, so the timing was impeccable. With regards to the device itself, it feels pretty robust. The weight and feel of it is premium to my hands. The large bezel on the side makes it very easy to hold and I do like the texture on the back of the device for even better grip and feel. While the weight makes it feel more substantial than my outgoing Kindle, it's still nowhere near heavy enough for me to feel uncomfortable during 4-5 hour reading sessions. I think my own gripe with the device is that the volume buttons feel slightly loose in the housing, but this is being nitpicky. Battery life so far has been acceptable to me. With stock settings the device completely shuts down after 10-15 mins. At these power settings, the device easily lasts weeks between charges. Since the startup time of the device is quite long (~1 min), I only shut the device down after 8 hours of idling, since I don't always have long reading sessions. Oftentimes, I'll read a few chapters in between other activities, and doing this setting allows me to hop straight back in within 1-2 secs. Even at this setting I'm getting about a week of life. When it comes to actually using it, the glass of the screen has a nice finish and the touchscreen is plenty responsive for an e-reader. The resolution seems more than adequate for the content I consume. There are lots of refresh modes and a few toggles with regards to contrast and vividness, and I've found that each type of content has its own optimized setting. Manga: There's enough resolution and contrast to where this reads almost like an actual tankoban. Only downside is when using Viz or ShonenJump app, there's no way to map the volume buttons to page turn. I believe this is an app limitation, not a device limitation. My manga through the Kindle store works just fine. Comics: I was hoping to use this to catch up on back issues from series that I've fallen behind on. This is probably where the device is the weakest. The colors are muted and cause the screen to be very dark. I'll either have to turn up the brightness really high (which causes even more washing out of the color), or use an external light source. However, for my use case, this is still completely passable as the only other alternatives are to use a bulkier Android tablet, or reading from the actual raw books instead. This is mainly where I'm taking off a star, since this was my primary reason for going with color instead of black and white. Ebooks: Being that the device runs on Android, I have access to literally everything. Over the last decade, I've amassed a collection of DRM ebooks from different marketplaces, as well as random epubs and pdfs. I can read my Kindle books through the Kindle app, Google books through Google Books, etc.. I also have a Calibre server at home which I can easily access using this device. I'm able to open all of my books using its respective native app. Compared to other devices, there's a fair amount of customizability that you're able to do. The device is great once you figure everything out, and it's somewhat required to get the most out of it. That said, I suspect that people looking for a turnkey ereader for all of their content might get frustrated. As an Android and Linux user, I'm no stranger to any of this, and it's right up my alley. Last note, I had no desire to get the pen for this device since I have other devices for that. I have no idea if this feature is any good.

I am loving my Boox! I actually bought a Kindle Colorsoft and Bigme B7 color to try them all, and I've returned them. These are the pros and cons. Kindle Colorsoft pros: -Longest battery life. -Color ink. Cons: -Kindle only options so no other reading apps like Libby, Hoopla, or Kobo. Bigme pros: -Runs on Android, so I was able to have all my reading apps in one place. -The best color e-ink out of them all. -Loved the buttons. -Came with pen and case. Cons: -Battery was the worst out of them all. -Doesn't have very many options for accessories or cases. Boox pros: -Runs on Android, so I was able to have all my reading apps in one place. -Battery life is mid, but it has an auto power off option after inactive use for an hour, which I love! -Has access to multiple accessories like a clear case and charging charms, similar to Kindle. -Loved the buttons. Cons: -Has the most Ghosting, but you can set one of the gestures as the refresh button, so it's still not a huge con.

I hate to give something a 1 star rating. I have a bigger boox device (4C) that I is an outstanding device. I bought this device so that was not so big to use in travel or short infomal meetings. I use the Onyx Note app heavily - it is an excellent app. This device came factory wrapped with no indication of mistreatment. The screen suffers as described in most of the one star reviews here. Random input, no input and seems as if the device is frozen at times. It was unusable. I didn't get a chance to test with a stylus, as I seemed to get something that had been returned to Amazon with a stylus that was not the original. Worse is that the Onyx Note app is not part of the software installed. I wanted to have my notes on both of my Boox devices. I knew size would be an issue, but I was willing to deal with that. I suppose if the device worked, I could load another app. But I use handwriting for Notes which can be searched and you can setup tags. Assuming you sync stuff with the onyx cloud, you can have this in multiple devices. I had to return the device as unusable because of the hardware. But it also is just a reader with a stylus support that has no real purpose. Bummer.

Well you won't usually find this product being advertised much in India. But it is a good alternative to your all day Android needs except for heavy tasks. If you are too much into web browsing and reading and don't want to strain your eyes then this is perfect solution... A blend of Android aswell as ereader... Only issue is you won't find its case easily. Also you can use it if you find your kids addicted to mobiles and don't want to strain their eyes.

I was so excited to get this ereader because it's Android. I found it easy to set up and download all my apps, etc. But the navigation was so slow. It was always freezing and i needed to restart it constantly. When reading in BorrowBox, if I decided to change the settings, the app would close and I had to restart it and navigate back to my book. A bit inconvenient considering the price. It may be that Borrowbox is a large app and the boox hasn't got enough memory to keep it open when changing the settings, but that was why I bought it, to read library books. Though I don't have that problem with Borrow box on my 8.1 Android Galaxy tab A which is 9 years old. It's just an eye burner to read books on for extended periods. Considering the boox is Android 14, it shouldn't have that problem. Also the ghosting and lagging were too much considering the price. And the colour isn't any great advantage. It's more economical and convenient to buy the books from Amazon and use my kindle than to buy the boox device.

I dont usually write revirws but this product deserves a for better score than what it gets It is an e reader but it also works with android, this means you are able to run any android app on it, every docume t that works on android will also work here Of course this also means that you ha e a lot of freedom to do things in the wrong way, if you try to run apps that are not compatible with the android version, if you try to run apps that require high refresh rate, it wont work and i think this is where most of the bad reviews are comming from Then again if you research just a little this is far supperior to other restrictive expensive products, i can not recommend it enough

評価は2寄りの3です。 kindleなどの書籍読み専用として購入しています。 使った感想としては使えるけど……ってかんじです。 良かった点 ・サイズと軽さ。 マンガを読むにはちょうど良く、電車で立ち読み腕は疲れない ・microSD対応 漫画が多い私には純正Kindleでは容量がキツかったのでこれは助かります。 気になる点 ・初心者が操作するには大変そう Kindleで物理ボタンの設定するのに小一時間かかった ・動作はもっさり 元々わかっていたのでマイナス評価ではないがもっさり感は否めないです。 ・フロントライトつけると充電残量がガンガンへる ・物理ボタンが設定した動作をたまに忘れることがある ・ゴーストタッチがちょいちょい発生する ・漫画のトーンがキレイに反映されない時がある お値段考えるとこれが一番評価落とした原因になります。

Terrible! Do not purchase. This tablet arrived defective- screen glitched between apps and could not be used. No amount of trouble shooting helped and Boox has terrible customer support.
